Hello everyone,
I was reading this paper and came across an expression which the authors say can be used to calculate the power coefficient of a wind turbine.
However, I am not able to understand the meaning of the terms in the numerator. Can anyone help me with them? In the denominator, I could make out the presence of incoming wind velocity, density of air, and turbine swept area. I have added both the image of the location of the expression and the article itself.
Thank you.
